Swindon Hub

Welcome to Swindon Hub, an accessible, friendly space run by the community, for the community.

Come and visit our affordable cafe, relax in our snug, read and share books in our book shop and browse items for sale from local retailers and upcycled furniture by Renew Men's Shed. We also have surplus stock items donated from shops for sale with profits going to Swindon Night Shelter.

We are building a calendar of regular events including a monthly craft market, weekly knitting circle and writers club as well as art workshops and regular music jams on the weekends.

We always need volunteers, so if you want to join us and help shape the future of communities in Swindon.

Due to the extreme heat this week with amber and red warnings & our air‑conditioning unit has unfortunately broken. With temperatures reaching 36–39 degrees, the building is not safe or comfortable for our volunteers or visitors.As I am sure you would you all agree, we would not want our volunteers to work in those conditions, so we’ll be pausing activity for the next few days.We’re aiming to reopen on Friday, as long as the temperature drops and conditions are safe and appropriate for everyone.Thank you so much for your understanding and patience during this unusual weather.We’ll keep everyone updated as things change. Stay cool and look after yourselves 💛

Our Vision, Goals & Values

  • The challenge

    In the face of social inequality, economic decline and environmental crisis, we need to work together to make Swindon a thriving, sustainable town.

  • Our vision

    To build a strong, cohesive and sustainable community with wellbeing for all at its heart.

  • We plan to achieve this by

    Facilitating accessible spaces for groups and individuals to create, meet, work, play, discuss, learn and share resources. 

Swindon Hub will

  • Empower, promote cooperation and build connections within the community to help make Swindon a better place for us all.

  • Progress sustainability and the environment by enabling community and environmental groups to come together to support and inspire each other.

  • Work to reduce or remove barriers that people may experience when using the space to ensure it is accessible, visible, inclusive and open to all.
